Private and secluded paradise

My family spent a few days enjoying the solitude this home offers. It's located on a private drive that's a few miles north of the northernmost town in Michigan. We barely saw anyone else while we were there.Amazing views of Brockway Mountain when it's clear, and the harbor in front of the cabin is very calm. Did plenty of kayaking and paddleboarding (the kayaks provided worked great). Water is typical Lake Superior - cold and clean and clear. Spent hours scouring the shorelines rock hunting, and warmed up next to a bonfire.Property itself was very well maintained. We had no issues getting into the home with the code provided, and instructions for everything was provided inside. Everything worked well, we were able to watch satellite TV and some DVD's. Kids took over the top floor, and the spiral staircase was a big hit. Bugs were minimal, and we only saw birds, a deer and a muskrat while there. Unfortunately it was cloudy/hazy for much of the time, so we didn't get much stargazing or northern lights viewing in.I only had a few questions for the owners ahead of time, and they were very responsive - often within minutes. Great little location for a family trip. Copper Harbor itself is a very small town, but we were able to enjoy some dinners and shopping.Overall very fun vacation, and look forward to checking this place out again in the future.

Nature lovers paradise

We absolutely loved our stay here. The house was perfect. The views were amazing. Watching the wildlife, the sunsets or the fog rolling in were a highlight of our day. It doesn’t get any better than that. Hope we get the opportunity to stay here again. Thank you for sharing your slice of heaven with us.

Gorgeous cabin - gorgeous setting!

This cabin was fantastic. Not only is the setting the best that nature can offer, but it was obvious that great care is taken on the inside as well. Going to this cabin felt like we were going into someone's home. It is beautifully decorated and cared for, it was very clean and everything we needed was at our fingertips. I will definitely come back to this one in the future!

2nd visit

We were fortunate enough to be able to stay at the house at the same time of year last fall. 1st time I’ve ever stayed in the same place twice and that’s because the place is perfect for me. There’s absolutely no beating the location. Long walks every day, amazing sunsets; and even when the weather didn’t cooperate it was peaceful space full of interesting local history to read up on. Thank you for sharing your home with our family.

Luxury in a Secluded Retreat

I can’t begin to tell you how much we loved this place. I want to own this place. First, to know where we come from: Two middle aged adults who have roughed it with the best of ‘em (Tent camped in N.Ontario just previous) but enjoy our amenities. While this house could accommodate more, we loved it for just the two of us and our dogs. The layout is so cool, from the spiral staircase to the loft, every inch of space is utilized efficiently. First, it was super clean—I never for once felt “ooo, germy.” There was even a shoe tray as you enter--We're serious "no shoes in the house" kinda folks so it was nice to have a place to plop them. The windows looking onto the lake are gorgeous. Everything in this house is made for your ease of enjoyment. Plenty of blankets for any cold nights, everything perfectly accessible from tinfoil, plastic, coffee filters and plenty of cooking utensils. There’s an external cabin with some neat folding chairs for sitting by the harbor, a kayak for your pleasure(a couple of bunk beds if you have a group). I super appreciated how organized everything was. Wow, there was even a bit of water to start off with instead of the heavily mineraled water of “up north.” Us trolls have a hard time with the water! The swing was a joy to relax, plenty of firewood to have a lovely fire as we awaited sunset. The directions from the hosts were well-laid out. It was obvious some care was taken with the interior decorating. Loved the sculptures, the table with the wine glasses, the shoeshine box hiding the cable, the upside down bear table. Every piece in the house you know was placed with care. Oh, and the loft couch/sleeper sofa—loved it! The downstairs bed was a dream--upstairs just ok, small and a little springy, but with a husband who is 6’5, unless there’s a king we sleep separately. The whole area was so quiet. Walking the dogs I never saw a soul. So much close by to enjoy: Besides the mining history which is incredible, Fort Wilkins was a step back in history, the lighthouse, Hunter’s Point. The best recommendation was Johanna at Spirit of the North Wellness. Best 90 minutes of my trip. Her energy was amazing. While I was there, the husband headed to the Mary McDonald preserve and Horseshoe Harbor. There is so much more to see and do in Copper Harbor. I can’t wait for a return trip, and will definitely be at Muriel & Keith’s!!

Beautiful home that has everything you need. The view was amazing. The town of Copper Harbor is not far from the house with a few shops to explore. Houghton is an hour away with a Wal-Mart for all your needs. On your way, Quincy Copper Mines is a cool place to stop and explore.

This vacation haven was the perfect getaway for us. The house provided spectacular views of the harbor. We watched beautiful storm clouds roll in during the evening. We were amazed at the wildlife we could see from our windows overlooking the harbor: eagles, blue jays, hummingbirds, beavers. It was a serene paradise. We didn't want to leave the house - and we didn't have to. The hosts were so considerate in providing anything someone could need, from cooking supplies to plenty of linens and extra toiletries. We were so comfortable we didn't want to leave. The area has an abundance of biking trails for the avid bicyclists - we only wish we had more time to take advantage of them. Overall, we would definitely return to this beautiful getaway!

The cabin was wonderful and we savored every minute we spent by the lake! We loved the magical path through the woods to Lily Lake. We gathered a handful blue berries, picked up a few special rocks and enjoyed the stars at night. Perfect vacation!

Nature lovers paradise.

Another phenomenal stay. Gorgeous sunsets over Brockway Mountain, Hooded mergansers fishing, Belted Kingfisher chatter and a family of otters provided the best entertainment. We watched the fog roll in one morning. It’s quite the impressive thing to see. Can’t say enough good things about this place. It’s in the best location, super comfy, good Wi-fi and has a great fire pit. I dare say, it’s perfect. We hope to stay again next year. It’s a highlight of our fall UP trip.

What a peaceful and private spot to use as a home base to enjoy the Copper Harbor area. The cabin is tastefully decorated and the kitchen is well supplied. The view of the harbor and the beach outside the door is enough to spend the day right there. We loved it.

Sunset Views and Solitude

Seeking an escape? Look no further. All the conveniences and amenities you could ask for at a remote and serene location. Beautiful sunsets over Copper Harbor lighthouse, private road offered room to stretch our legs, sightings of otters frolicking, beavers gathering sticks, wood ducks floating, eagles hunting for fresh fish, and signs from larger land predators. We enjoyed all of the above. Unique property with very responsive hosts. (Note from host approved Labrador: Good sniffs on walks. Swam a lot. Saw frens in lake fetching sticks, but they didn’t speak dog and tails were big and flat.)
